Used the following and STILL am able to connect to the internet.. What could be causing this? Is their anything that im missing. Any help much appreciated.

code:
 

IF INGROUP("Administrators")
$key="HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings"
$rtn=writevalue($key,"ProxyEnable","0","REG_DWORD")
? "Net disabled.."
$key="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings"
$rtn=writevalue($key,"ProxyEnable","0","REG_DWORD")
? "Net disabled.."
$rs=WriteValue ("HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings", "ProxyServer", "", "REG_SZ")
? "Net disabled.."
$rs=WriteValue ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Enum\Network\MSTCP\0001\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings", "ProxyServer", "", "REG_SZ")
? "Net disabled.."


The odd thing is all of the keys have been updated..

Many thanks

Steve

don't know your environment: are your running an autoproxy script as it uses different registry values; do you use a proxy at all?; could the pages you see be from the local cache?

No proxy script, but their is a volera box that does the web caching, this box acts as the proxy.. Then volera redirects through to our ISP Ill check to see if it is viewing cached only...

Hi,

What is your settings in internet explorer's Connection and LAN Settings?

Are they affected by running the script?

If you manualy unswitch the ProxyEnable box (First box under Proxy Server) does this enable/disable internet access?

Hi,

The only thing I could think of is the timing of running the script, I generaly exacute the proxy settings after the user has logged in with runonce which is set in the inital script that runs.

eg.

code:
 
; Once login in sequence complete, i.e. user.dat downloaded to PC, run login1.kix
$key="HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce"
$rtn=writevalue($key,"kix","kix32 \\server\netlogon\login1.kix","reg_sz")


Perhaps this could solve your problem?

I do run the script after log on (also I have this script loading HKEY_CURRENT_USER keys into the reg from a shell successfully) and although it does return a 'key loaded' string it still does not change the reg key!

Ive posted the whole script.
code:
  

SetConsole ("HIDE")
IF @USERID="MARGARET.COX" AND @DATE="2002/10/10"
PLAY "0g256t 0g4d1047f f 1g8d1175f 1047f 1397f 2g16d1319f 0g4d1047f f 1g8d1175f 1047f 1568f 2g16d1397f 0g4d1047f f 1g8d2093f 1760f 1397f 1319f 2g16d1175f 0g6d1865f f 1g11d1760f 1397f 1568f 3g21d1397f256t 0g 18d 0ffff 2d"

This is bizzarre!! Ive exported the key before doing this ive manually disabled the ProxyServer (set it to value 0) exported this to the root of C:\ (called it disanet.reg) the branch being, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings. Ive then run the following (after manually deleting the branch!)
code:
 
;disable proxy
IF INGROUP("Administrators")
$rmv = DelKey("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings")
If $rmv = 0
? "Key deleted..."
Endif
shell "regedit /s c:\disanet.reg"
? "Key loaded"
ENDIF

If I load this key through the script it sets the value of ProxyServer to 1 if I merge the key manually (by right clicking on it) it does excactly what I want and sets it to 0... Im going mad!!!

Thanks for everybodies help, I managed to get it working in the end. The problem was I was trying to run the Ingroup function using global groups in a 9x environment (I had to create a few local groups for each of my year groups is all!) It pays to read the manuall!!!

Cheers

Do you run the KiXtart RPC Service? There are posts in the FAQ Forum with regards to the RPC Service and Windows 9x support. Worth reading, too.
